The time spent and financial costs incurred by private business entities when applying for permits and certificates for carrying out construction works will be decreased following amendments and supplements made by the Government to its previous decisions, IPN reports.
Deputy Minister of Economy Vitalie Iurcu said the procedure for authoring finished buildings will be simplified. The works acceptance commissions will no longer include representatives of public authorities if the constructions are performed with private sector funds. Such a decision will not affect the quality of private constructions. The state, through the agency of the State Construction Inspectorate, can plan its inspection activities at each construction stage apart.
It was also excluded the necessity of the ecological appraisal of buildings by the State Ecological Inspectorate. The mandatory sanitary appraisal of the State Public Health Service will also not be necessary. There were also eliminated other regulatory procedures that were repeated. The amendments and supplements take effect on May 31, 2017.
By the development strategy “Moldova 2020”, the Government pledged to reduce the period of time needed to get a construction authorization and all the required certificates and permits to 100 days. At the end of 2015, the authorization was obtained in 180-200 days.
